Beer Battle Face-Off : Fuller's ESB vs. Stout's Scarlet Lady ESB
Fuller's ESB- Classic ESB from England
Awards: CAMRA's Best Strong Ale award on seven separate occasions
Experience: 350+ years
Beer enjoyment: 4.5/5, Awesome beer! Very balanced, nice malty sweetness and slight bitterness
Stoudt's scarlet lady ESB- American craft beer
Awards: n/a
Experience: since 1987
Beer enjoyment: 3/5: A decent, average, beer, very drinkable. I wish the bitterness was more prominent like the Fuller's.
The winner: Fuller's ESB!
I had never tried either beer before. Just because a beer is old and classic doesn't necessarily mean there isn't one that can top it since there is a lot of brewing talent out there all over the world. But in this case, the Fuller's is really tough to beat. I have had other ESBs and this is by far the best!
